is expensive in Germany. The gov-
ernment_doesn‘t permit anyone to
have a machine for receiving wire-

Until the middle of October the
government regarded broadcasting
with such .usplcion that it was pro-
hiblted for amusement purposes. and
the public was not permitted to have
receivers.
For some time the posiofiice dc—
partment which controls wireless
operations has had considerable in-
come from a. service called "Blitz-
funk" which was supplied to banks
and commercial concerns throughout
the republic. and the desire to retain
this income has apparently interfered
with general permission to establish
receiving stations.
Preparations are being made to
supply hospitals. cafes and factories
with operas. concerts. speeches and
news reports. President Ebert and
tire Minister of Posts. Dr. Iloefile. at-
tended the formal opening of public
broadcasting. which was also attend-
cd by a. large delegation of Berlin
newspapermen and widely heralded
in the press as a new development
in Germany's technical progress. '
Mad Steer Terrifies
Broadway Crowds
xuw Tonic, Dec. 21.--A mad-
dened steer threw crowds in the
Roaring Forties into panis as
it raced, with horns tossing. from the
abbaloir at Fortieth street and Elev-
enth avenue to Eighth avenue. north
to Fortyrixih street. and then turn-
wi toward Broadway.
It was headed off by an actor,
Joseph Stutz. who used his over-
coat as a toreador uses his cape. The
actor captured the animal in :m

"Homeless men are saving their

Dunne. "It is surprising how well
some of them are living.
“They are eating more and better
